There are lots of Memorial Day laptop sales going on right now. Right now Amazon has the MacBook Pro M1 on sale for $1,099, $200 off.
This Memorial Day sale will impress you not only with its power, but especially with its durability. The machine has so much staying power that you may not even need to bring a charger.
In our review of the MacBook Pro M1, we found that thanks to Apple's silicon, this laptop blows away most Windows laptops in speed. For example, transcoding a 4K video took only 7 minutes and 46 seconds on the MacBook Pro, compared to over 18 minutes on the Dell XPS 13.
The battery life offered by the MacBook Pro M1 is also attractive. In our web surfing battery test, the notebook lasted a whopping 16 hours and 25 minutes. This is six hours longer than the previous Intel MacBook Pro and more than five hours longer than the XPS 13.
Other features include a bright and colorful Retina display, a comfortable Magic keyboard, and a wide and responsive touchpad. However, we wish Apple had included more Thunderbolt ports, not just two. Also, the bezels around the display could be a bit thinner.
Overall, the MacBook Pro M1 is not much faster than the MacBook Air M1. However, the battery life is even longer, and this discount is too great to pass up.
